The blog is called ten percent because of what Kurt Vonnegut wrote when remembering Susan Sontag - She was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10 percent of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10 percent is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80 percent could be moved in either direction.-

And I'm writing it because I need the therapy and I lust for world domination.

Flipping Heck

11 June, 2009 — RickB

So anyway, it turns out I really do need a new car bonnet (hood) being as this one is so rusty it separated from the catch and flipped up on me on the motorway. Such is the sea air and its full compliment of rust pixies. Also I have thought-finger-typing maladjustment syndrome, my brain is whirring way too fast at the same time my fingers don’t want to type properly. It happens!

I will get back and catch up with comments and blogging soon, I swear.

Indeed bonnet belongs more to a costume drama than a car, hood is also cooler sounding and exciting (like Robin Hood an early English socialist and class warrior)! Still I take tap over faucet, so there’s swings and roundabouts.

Eek! Mine was weird, like a big metal crisp packet open at the front, it was still fixed to the car but one seam had rusted through, and a fairly empty road good visibility so as with yours no injuries. The weirdest motorway incident I experienced was a heard of cows running all over the motorway, somewhere south of Birmingham I think it was. Then there was this tank once, but that was an A road.
